Our population is 97% free lunch and international. Our students live in challenging neighborhoods that lack access to the healthy foods often available in other neighborhoods. Due to this factor food choices are limited. In most of their neighborhoods there are a vast variety of fast food options or fried food but little else. This is compounded by a general lack of knowledge within the community of nutrition and healthy eating practices. A typical breakfast for our students is chips and a sugary beverage or no breakfast at all. In addition most of our students engage in little or no physical activity. The result is predictable. Our students suffer from obesity. If this continues we know that they will suffer from life-long ailments associated with conditions related to obesity, like diabetes and heart conditions.
